Behind closed door press demonstration

seconding this, wtf OP
did that faggot legit gets invited and shit? I remember being entertained by his first lore videos, which just regurgitated what Yea Forums thought, but then he cranked up the "omg so beautiful intense voice". what a crock of shit

Its going to be an unfinished mess all over again.

The carrot for the media that will talk positivelly about the game, promoting it, and so creating more sales, while the media itself gets more visits, and therefore money, from having such exclusive info.
Marketing, basically.
How old are you to not know how media works, anyway? Genuine question, I'm disappointed a (at least) 18 years old doesn't know how the world works at such basic level yet.

True, but this is a Tanimura led game so it’s going to be a toss up on if it’s good out the gate.

Gamescom, to the press. Gamescom in in 16 days

the Tanimura influence is immediately evident by his terrible taste in art direction

If this game doesn't have summoning and invasion I am literally going to kill myself

she could probably jerk someone off with what remains of her armpit

Someone should record it

>Tanimura is responsible for drawing the characters

Does anyone know what perspective this game is in? Is this gonna be my true king's field successor?

He decides what gets in the final game, that's what directors do.

Fuck. Maybe someday before I die.

Tanimura does not involve with the initial designs phase for DkS2.
He just reused the assets that were left behind by the previous director and hastily assemble the game within less than a year.

The previous director is none other than Miyazaki himself.

so there will be no multiplayer?

>The previous director is none other than Miyazaki himself.
source: your gay ass

Source is 2 different interview by Miyazaki himself.
This is before From acquisition and before he was appointed the President by the parent company.
Tanimura and his co-director interview in DkS2 design work books also review more depth regarding DkS2 development woes.

link them

The first director was Tomohiro Shibuya

>boobplate
Good thing this didn't make it into Dark Souls

someone didn't read the interviews

The first director is definitely Miyazaki, he explicitly stated that he was removed from the development with another director replacing him.
Shibuya and Tanimura became director almost the same time, if not at the same time.

I just want pvp
ooooh invasions...

I hope it's better than shitkero

Tomohiro Shibuya was the original director, there are interviews with that nigger from late 2012 when the game was revealed.

I wonder what kind of minibosses will the cheatfags come up with?

From Software did this with Dark Souls and Bloodborne, right?

What are the best From games? Like what KF games are good, etc
Also why do people post OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH about Elden Ring?

Can someone give me the run down on the Dark Souls 2 development?

Remember these?

You can't be the original director if you replace somebody else in the first fucking place.
Miyazaki stated TWICE that he was removed, once in DkS2 interview and another in Bloodborne interview.
Both iterate that it is not his own decision.

Dark Soul 2 development started immediately after Dark Souls release alongside AotA, with Miyazaki as the director till AotA development finished. (Bloodborne 4Gamers Interview)
That is at least 10 months of him working on Dark Souls 2.

The truth is no one except people working at From knows, it's mostly theories

Despite SoulsKiroBornefags warring about what game is better than what, all of their games are pretty great. Armoured Core from what i've heard is also pretty good aswell

All we really know about it is it's going to basically be a Celtic inspired darksouls, GRRM worked on the story, there's a horse suggesting a semi open or at least larger world to travel, and other wise it will be a refinement of the gameplay from dark souls

What was your first Demon's Souls playthrough like? Anything I should be aware of that is different here than in Dark Souls?

Demon's Souls biggest strength is definitely that foreboding atmosphere and it starts right from the get go with the Nexus Theme.

Will it be an actual RPG where you can run off and do shit or will it be an "RPG" that is just action?

Play Noble if you want to be OP as shit

Kill the bodyguard first

>Celtic
Honestly nothing about the trailer gives me these vibes, it's probably going to be typical high fantasy with some dark fantasy stuff

I mean from their older catalogue, I've played nearly every AC except AA and LR, and I've played Souls/Blood and downloading Sekiro right now
I'm mainly talking about Kings Field, Shadow Tower, Echo Night, anything obscure-ish
Pretty interesting, a fun time though.
Going human has way more benefits in Demons, although in this day and age you won't get any invaders

Both Tanimura and Shibuya came in almost at the same time according to EDGE magazine.

It is based on the series of interviews.

>Dark Souls 2 development started at the same time as AotA DLC
>Miyazaki is removed from development when AotA DLC is finished
>Shibuya and Tanimura became the new director (EDGE issue 249)
>Tanimura stated that they have to completely redo the whole game when he came in.
>SE approach him for a new project

The only ones I really know of from their older games are KF and EN. Never played them, but KF is super hard, but it did set them off into making 4 more games so they must've done something right. EN looks more like a murder mystery puzzle game. Dont know if that fits your boat

The giant actually looks pretty good standing up, still not a big fan of the helmet though

stop spreading misinformation. ds2fags are so fucking delusional.

*ahem*

DEMONS SOULS WAS ALRIGHT THOUGH

Yes, they always do this shit at gamescom.

>delusional

It is based on facts tho.
You cannot be removed from a position if you do not assume said position in the first place.

>mic will record anything but the game
>some retard will scream for no reason every 2 seconds

>Miyazaki is removed from development when AotA DLC is finished

Did Dark Souls plan to have DLC?

>people are retarded enough to think that Miyazaki won't handle the game that he requested fatman to write for

don't just pick one word from my post to present an argument. do you have any proof to back up your facts?

There will probably be a press preview event later in the year like Sekiro did, we got a decent chunk of the start of the game. I think Gamescom will come with a gameplay trailer, feels weird that it might take until Game Awards to see it in game but they might do it to hype up the GRRM name in a big platform

>Proof

Why are Emma and Jobichiro fighting by the gate?

Miyazaki himself stated that both started at the same time.
Downtime is the bane of a studio, so the development would started immediately.

>proof

By his own word in Bloodborne interview.

>Miyazaki: Partially because development on Artorias of the Abyss Edition and Dark Souls II was going on simultaneously, I was kind of removed from the development of Dark Souls II and then I began work on Bloodborne

>4Gamers: One thing that's always seemed strange to me is that you removed yourself from the development of Dark Souls II. How did that happen?
>Miyazaki: I'm not in a position to say what kind of decision the company made at the time...

>Arguing and shitflinging between the games
>Not being an overall FromChad
Come on bros

he was removed from development as a supervisor of the project. he was never actively directing it. he had a consulting position.

No, he assume supervisor position after he was removed.

Because Isshin and Owl is having a Dad fight

alright man

>but this is a Tanimura led game
[citation needed]

Where is your proof that this is Tanimura led game?

Remember Yea Forums, If a FROM game looks like something you probably will not enjoy, it means it's made by B-team.
All design decisions you don't personally like in a FROM game are B-team, all good ones are Miyazaki.

What are some other telltale signs that someone only started playing these games after they became popular on Reddit with Dark Souls 1, other than calling it "DkS" instead of "DaS"?

>Miyazaki goes to work on Bloodborne, taking his key team members with him
>Shibuya starts directing DS2 instead
>high budget CGI teaser releases, From is going all out for the sequel
>director makes the infamous "We want the Skyrim audience" quote
>fans worried, but the game still looks good so far
>has a ton of R&D poured into the lighting engine (looked next-gen at the time) and open world technology
>development becomes troubled, probably due to technical limitations of consoles
>Tanimura brought on last minute to fix this disaster
>game basically remade from table scraps in the last six months or so
>areas and story just stitched together, making the buggy mess we have now
>almost nothing resembles the original reveal
>game looks like shit because lighting engine was gutted last second

That's the gist

Thinking PVP has "rules" instead of invasions being a giant battle

Did they downgrade DS2 for PS3's 256mb of ram?

complaining about second half of DaS1

>A director who approve Blightown can't possibly build a game that would run at 'seconds per frame'

Ignore that post, its without any basis or fact at all.
Even ignoring Miyazaki own words.

>The guy who directed AC Nexus basically doesn't exist

>complaining about second half of DaS1

explain this meme

cringe

It's a common opinion that the game suffers after the Lordvessel.

>.
hidtaka kamiya has stated that elden ring wont have a presense in gamescom

?
The only thing that's officially stated is that there won't be playable demo

>complaining about invaders and unironically refering to them as "assholes"
>extrapolates the twinking """problem""" to make a case for being bad
>praising invasion restrictions, following and listening to Vaati's bullshit without knowing how he actually does stuff
>actually thinks that Reddit has any power choosing the "main" engame pvp/duel soul level and unironically makes threads trying to convince them to change to this or that level
>unironically uses "muh honor" as an argument
>thinks that invaders have to follow his imaginary code of conduct as the ultimate law
>will unironically make "shout out" threads to this or that random ass player he came across because they did something slightly amusing he thinks that reddit is the center of the universe so of course the guy MUST be there

It's one of those things that get parroted by redditors once one redditor or youtuber says it, so it becomes "the truth".

no he said elden ring is skipping gamesocm

What'd he do I mean?

yeah you have nothing
stop being retarded

To show the gaming press a stipulated and very early preview of their game

It's not ready to be shown to the public but it is for games press, who will have been told in very clear terms that it is very early and won't be very polished, so that they can tell consumers what they have seen from the game in order to feed hype

really? oh good!

yo got proof on that?
Because Shadow Tower Bayss and Dark Souls 2 are the best things from has made

Shibuya

Off the top of my head.

He literally takes other people's stuff to make videos about "his" bullshit theories. He used to lurk /vg/'s generals and take what people came up with and made videos as if the idea was his own. In fact, the Bloodborne General even tricked him once by making up a bullshit theory about the Wet Nurse being Eileen and some other bullshit I don't remember and he actually fell for it and ended up making a video about it the next day. There was also some redditfag who had done this massive essay about Bloodborne's lore (100+ pages) and he took a bunch of shit from it and presented them as his own ideas and the whole shit blew up.

He also shilled dark souls 2 hard, saying it was even better than 1 and people called him out on it. Only after a lot of time had passed he then admitted to the game being a huge step back from DaS 1.

Also he got called out on the dark souls general and went to reddit crying harassment and playing the victim card to the bunch of retards who ate it up.

>Dark Souls 2
>a huge step back from DaS 1
You have to be fucking retarded to believe this.

What happened to Epic Name Bro?

dead

wife left him and he deleted most of his videos and only streams now

It hurts.

t. I bought all the games in a 2016+ sale and binged them, with SOTFS being my only dark souls 2 experience

Will Elden Ring be Elden Ring or just Dark Souls 3.5 with similar R1 roll spam, weapon +X upgrades, etc.?

are you retarded?

Sekiro with white people shit

wow how exciting

dmc 5 already killed sekiro, it's gonna kill this garbage too lmao

And I played DS2 on release faggot, SotFS only made the superior game better.

Batman Arkham Knight has better combat than Suckiro

He's absolutely right though

>FUCK THE 2ND HALF OF DARK SOULS
Very based, very redpilled

yes your game was so shit I quit playing, bravo

Wtf that looks way better than what we got what in the world happened?

Wrong, tubby

look like a sega saturn game

Are the people posting "Looks like a Saturn/PS2/Whatever game" shitposting? They can't actually think that right?

all I ask is they have body sliders and skimpy armor for both males and females

look like gameboy game

Unironically the graphics. Even with all the downgrades its lightning system is still better than DaS 1, and the torch lighting is way more atmosperic than most of baked-in lighting in DaS 1.
Also DS2 has better online by the miles. Tons of QoL improvements, like being able to leave your sign in one area and explore everywhere up to the boss without your sign being erased. Good luck doing that in DaS 1 or fucking DS3, what a joke. Or fixed backstabs, or dedicated servers, the list goes on.
There's no denying that certain areas in DS2 look like shit because they scrambled the game out of whatever assets they had, but it's still bigger, better than DaS 1. Also, the DLCs are everything DS2 stands for tripled - harder, grander, prettier.
Except Frigid Plains, we don't talk about that one.

>not liking based blanka aethetics

not him, but I played 45 minutes of the game on release and I never went back because the game played like hot shit.
